Ei Dynasty, Kyoto, Hosui Palace.

The Queen Mother had just taken a nap, got up from the couch lazily, peeled an orange after cleaning her hands, and Grandpa Cui came in and said, "Queen Mother, Qin Nanxian has arrived." ”

"Let him in." , With the order of the Queen Mother, Qin Nanxian walked in.

After a few months of recuperation, his leg injury has healed, but he is much thinner than before, and he saluted the Queen Mother: "See the Queen Mother." ”

The Queen Mother put the orange petal in her mouth, pointed to the chair in the distance and said, "Sit down and talk." ”

"Empress Dowager Xie." , Qin Nanxian sat down, the Queen Mother looked at him, and said: "I haven't seen you for a few days, and I have lost a lot of weight." ”

Qin Nanxian replied lightly: "My nephew has been healing, and he hasn't been able to come to greet his aunt." ”

The Queen Mother put the uneaten oranges on the kang table, pinched the silk handkerchief and wiped her hands, and said: "Since it is a healing, it should be fatter, why is it still thin?" You have always been a skilled doctor, and you can save people who are dying, can't you save yourself from a wounded leg? ”

Faced with the Queen Mother's question, Qin Nanxian didn't know how to answer, and the Queen Mother, who had seen through everything, said coldly: "The mourning family knows that you are worried about her, but she betrayed Rongguo after all." ”

Qin Nanxian stubbornly denied: "I didn't worry about Zui Yao, my aunt was too worried." ”

The Queen Mother pulled out a chuckle: "I haven't said who she is?" How did you know that the mourning family was talking about Yao'er? ”

Such a sentence was enough to make Qin Nanxian embarrassed and unable to say a word.

The Queen Mother took a deep breath: "Xian'er, you are a smart child, you know what you can do and what you can't do. ”

Qin Nanxian understood this, but he didn't know how to reply when he sat there, and after thinking for a long time, he said, "My nephew understands." ”

The Queen Mother's eyes wandered down Qin Nanxian's body, threw the silk handkerchief in her hand on the soft couch at will, picked up a jade Ruyi beside her, and said: "The mourning family is also young, so they naturally understand your thoughts, but some people are destined not to belong to you." ”

Subsequently, the queen mother's eyes fell on the jade Ruyi in her hand, and her eyes dimmed and said: "This jade Ruyi was given to the mourning family by one person before the mourning family entered the palace, and since the day of entering the palace, the mourning family has never seen him except for this jade Ruyi." ”

This is the first time Qin Nanxian has heard the Queen Mother mention his past, he looked at the jade Ruyi in the Queen Mother's hand, and guessed that that person must be special, and it can also be said that the Queen Mother was tempted.

The jade Ruyi looks like it is some years old, and the jade has been slightly yellowed, but it is very well preserved.

Subsequently, the Queen Mother looked at Qin Nanxian and said: "In fact, as long as the mourning family says a word and gives orders, you can pass that person into the palace to meet you, but the mourning family did not do this, because the mourning family knows that the mourning family is the queen mother, the woman of the first emperor, and some things can only be hidden in the heart." ”

Then, the Queen Mother put down Yu Ruyi, looked at the folding fan in Qin Nanxian's hand, and said with a slightly cool gaze: "It's autumn now, but you have a fan in your hand, and the mourning family has seen you carry it more than once, it should have been given by Zui Yao, right?" ”

Qin Nanxian's brows tightened slightly, he wanted to hide the fan, but since it was discovered by the Queen Mother, he had no choice but to give up.

Seeing that Qin Nanxian didn't speak, the Queen Mother said again: "Zui Yao is already married, she is already Shao Ziqing's wife, not to mention, you and Shao Ziqing were friends in the past, and friends' wives can't be bullied, so you don't need to say more about this truth." ”

Such an embarrassing topic made Qin Nanxian a little reluctant to talk about it anymore, and asked, "Is it that why my aunt passed her nephew into the palace today?" ”

is just a plain question, but it is enough to move the Queen Mother: "Isn't this matter important enough?" ”

Qin Nanxian tightened the folding fan in his hand and said: "For as long as I can remember, I have been staying by my aunt's side, and it was my aunt who asked me to get close to Shao Ziqing, and I can become friends with Shao Ziqing, which is also what my aunt means." ”

"What are you blaming the mourners?" , The Queen Mother's face suddenly turned cold, and Qin Nanxian replied: "Nephew doesn't dare to blame you, it's just that from beginning to end, everything is the Queen Mother's meaning." ”

The Queen Mother immediately chuckled: "You mean to say that everything you and Shao Ziqing used to do was a scene?" Are they all following the orders of the mourning family? Hehe, you're looking for words. ”

"Nephew doesn't dare." Qin Nanxian's face also became a lot more ugly.

The Queen Mother breathed a deep sigh of relief, and her tone was filled with a commanding tone: "Xian'er, the woman in this world, whoever you like will fulfill your aunt, only Jiang Zuiyao, no." ”

Firm words, cold, and intolerant of any discussion.

It's just that the Queen Mother's words are really meaningless, because Jiang Zuiyao did reject Qin Nanxian's love.

Qin Nanxian didn't want to ask the Queen Mother how she knew his thoughts, but replied lightly: "Aunt don't worry, my nephew won't be embarrassed." ”

The Queen Mother looked at Qin Nanxian deeply, Xu was tired of sitting, leaned on the cushion, and said solemnly: "The mourning family knows Zui Yao's temperament, if she had the heart to be with you, you would have been together a long time ago, and the mourning family is afraid that you will be difficult for yourself." ”

Qin Nanxian bit his lip with difficulty, put it down, doesn't he want to put it down? Just let go, it's too hard for him.

The Queen Mother directly said it thoroughly this time, and said: "You know Shao Ziqing's identity, Zui Yao is his wife, and she will inevitably be about half of the way in the future, if you do something out of the ordinary, the royal family will not allow you." ”

Qin Nanxian bit his lip secretly, and responded: "My aunt's teachings, my nephew has remembered them." ”

The Queen Mother nodded slightly: "It's good for you to remember, the mind that should be broken should be broken as soon as possible, after all, Zui Yao is a traitor now, and it is not worth it." ”

When Qin Nanxian heard this, he immediately looked at the Queen Mother, thought for a long time, and asked very seriously: "Auntie, is Zui Yao really treasonous?" I don't believe it. ”

The Queen Mother snorted coldly: "What do you not believe?" ”

"The Queen Mother values her so much, if she is treasonous, you will definitely not allow it, your nephew knows your character, even if you dig three feet into the ground, you will arrest her back, and you will never let her live."

"She is now by Shao Ziqing's side, although Shao Ziqing is also a traitor, but after all, she is also the emperor and grandson of the mourning family, just by virtue of this, I can't kill her. As for the future, it must be caught, but the time has not yet come. ”

Qin Nanxian was full of doubts, really? Is what the Queen Mother said true?

Then, the Queen Mother took out a pre-written note from the soft cushion of the soft couch, handed it to Qin Nanxian and said, "I need you to prepare a few pairs of medicines." ”

Qin Nanxian got up and took the note and looked at it, there were three requests from the Queen Mother, and he was surprised.

The Queen Mother asked solemnly: "The mourning family only gives you half a month, can you take it?" ”

Qin Nanxian frowned, he didn't ask the Queen Mother why she wanted this medicine, because he knew that since the Queen Mother didn't say it, it was a secret that couldn't be said, so he had to nod and said, "Yes." ”

The autumn breeze blew in, and the Queen Mother couldn't help but shrink her neck: "I'm old, I can't touch the cool breeze, this blowing feels like my whole body hurts, you go down, I'm tired of mourning." ”

Qin Nanxian saluted: "My nephew retires." ”

When he was about to go out, the Queen Mother's voice sounded lazily: "You have to remember carefully what the mourning family said to you today." ”

Qin Nanxian was slightly stunned, his fingers holding the note tightened, his face sank, and he left silently.
